The deadline for entries in the $7000 UNSW Bragg Prize for Science Writing for the anthology and the prize close on March 31. For details on the prize and how to enter, go to: http://www.newsouthpublishing.com/articles/best-australian-science-writing-2016-call-entries/ 

“We want newspaper articles, book extracts, essays, longform and punchy snack-size pieces. Together they will become a blockbuster compendium of intrigue, humour, investigation, character, elation, frustration, creativity, narrative, news, and maybe even a little controversy.

Published pieces must have appeared in print or online in 2015 or 2016 – but not in an earlier BASW anthology, and the closing date for submissions is 31 March 2016. Pieces in-press will also be considered. Please submit your work for consideration via scienceprize[at]newsouthpublishing[dot]com and please feel free to contact that email address for any other information.

Entries published between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2016 will also be eligible for Bragg UNSW Press Prize for Science Writing, which offers a first prize of $7000 and two runner-up prizes of $1500 each.”
